Clarity Amplified Telephone

The Clarity Phone is the first telephone designed to help those with high-frequency hearing loss, a problem affecting 95% of the hearing impaired. Everyone needs upper-range or high-frequency sounds to hear words clearly. People with high-frequency hearing loss can't hear sounds like "st" and "ch", so words like "stair" and "chair" sound like "air". Just increasing the volume of telephone reception doesn't help, because it amplifies all frequencies. Upper-range sounds still don't come through, which just results in louder muddle.

Dry Aid Kit

Secure Longer Life and Continuous Efficiency for Hearing Aids

Moisture is the enemy of all hearing aids. Dampness, humidity, and body moisture reduce their sensitivity, shorten battery life, and cause corrosion. Where moisture conditions are excessive, the sensitive microphone and receiver may even become inoperable.

Both the Super Dri-Aid and the Mini Super Dri-Aid protect all types of hearing aids from moisture.

Before retiring for the evening, place hearing aid inside jar on top of foam pad and close cover securely. Pellets start working immediately to remove harmful moisture from hearing aid. Remove aid next day when ready to use.

Mini Super Dri-Aid is the most effective desiccant available. Utilizing special molecular sieve pellets which are physically and chemically different from silica gel based products, Mini Super Dri-Aid pellets have an enormous capacity to hold moisture and based upon regional moisture conditions, can last for months before requiring rejuvenation.

Special Blue Indicator Pellets turn opaque to let you know when rejuvenation is required. Mini Super Dri-Aid can be rejuvenated many times and will give you years of service.

Mini Super Dri-Aid is very useful in keeping testing molds and tips free from moisture as well as removing moisture from canal and ITE instruments.

The compact size of the Mini Super Dri-Aid makes it ideal for traveling. For home or office.

Dry and Store

Drying Compartment: (single tray) 4 inches by 3.5 inches by 1 inch (102mm by 90mm by 25mm) Positive-latching hinged lid with a drying compartment that will accommodate all types of hearing aids, including many body-worn aids. Dry and Store Global can also be used with cochlear implant microphones, headpieces, and speech processors (both ear-level and body-worn). The unit timer resets itself each time the lid is opened, so that short-term conditioning is possible.

Input Power: 100 to 240 volts AC, 50/60Hz, 1.0A maximum

Output: 24 volts DC at 15W maximum

The default AC adapter has a US/Japan plug, but Schuko (European), UK, or Australian plugs are available. Will also work with an inverter for 12V service.

If the label on your AC adapter says Model ML240 or SPS 10-007 or SSB-0325, your Dry and Store Global can be used anywhere in the world, no voltage converter necessary. All that's needed is the appropriate plug adapter, or you can travel adapter-free by ordering individual power supplies with native plugs. Choose from US, UK, Europe, Australia, or South African plugs (see online order form).

Note: If the label on your AC adapter says Model MWS2488UC and "Made in China", the power supply should be replaced.

Conditioning Cycle: Dry and Store has an operating cycle of eight hours. It conditions at an average temperature of 96.8 to 104°F (36 to 40°C) and a relative humidity of 19 to 25%, based on indoor ambient temperatures from 65 to 86°F (18 to 30°C). The germicidal lamp illuminates for the first three minutes then turns off automatically.

Air-circulating Fan: Ball-bearing fan continuously circulates warm, dry air for the entire operating cycle, causing moisture to move out of the hearing instruments by diffusion.

Dry-Brik

The Dry-Brik is a replacement desiccant for your Dry and Store system. Dry-Brik helps keep the moisture out of your hearing aids, thus protecting them and saving you money in the long run. Dry-Brik is sold in packs of three units.

A question that often comes up is "How long should my desiccant last?". Here are some insights from the manufacturer of Dry and Store:

How long should my desiccant last?

Useful desiccant life varies widely with the seasons, geographic location, and the activity level of the user. The average life of a Dry-Brik is two months, typically lasting longer during the cool months and shorter during the warm months. As we head into warmer weather, don't be alarmed if you start noticing shorter desiccant life.

The label includes a colour indicator dot which is intended to change from blue to pink at the same pace that the Dry-Brik is becoming saturated, but there are variations from Dry-Brik to Dry-Brik, and it leaves lots of room for personal interpretation as to when it's time to change. Assuming that the Dry and Store unit is kept in a dry room and that the drawer remains closed at all times, a Dry-Brik in its clear plastic wrapping will absorb moisture for at least a month. There is usually no need to replace it sooner than one month even if the indicator colour turns pink before then.

Pocket Talkers

The Pocket Talker allows an individual to communicate with a person who is hard of hearing. A small microphone picks up speech, which is amplified and sent to a hearing-aid-compatible earphone. It amplifies sounds and voices in your immediate environment when you direct the microphone toward the sounds you wish to hear. Pocket Talker can be used by individuals who have hearing impairments to communicate with other individuals or for listening to television, radio, and other sounds.

How it works: Using the Pocket Talker, a person positions the ear piece and places the microphone next to the desired sound, as close as possible to eliminate or decrease background noise. Adapters are available for hearing aids, telephone, and television hookup.

Who will benefit? Individuals who are hard-of-hearing.

Sennheiser 810

Sennheiser's Set 810 listening system lets you listen to an audio or audio/video source with wireless convenience. The system consists of a TI 810 infrared FM stereo transmitter and an RI 810 infrared stereo stethoset receiver. Simply connect the TI 810 transmitter to the headphone socket of a television set or hi-fi system and you're ready to enjoy television sound in privacy and comfort. The Set 810 is also ideal for family members who are hearing-impaired, letting them listen to a program at a louder level than that heard by other viewers.

The stethoset receiver offers a large, easy-to-use volume control. If your television doesn't have an audio output jack, you can use the supplied microphone to amplify the output of the television's speaker. Selectable (on/off) dynamic-range compression can excellent speech intelligibility by decreasing the level of loud passages (like commercials and explosions) and boosting soft passages (like whispers) for a more even audio level.

For recharging, simply stand the receiver in the charging cradle and it automatically charges. Use the separate port to charge a spare battery (sold separately). The transmitter charging cradle charges the battery in just three hours.

Automatic on/off frees you from worrying about forgetting to turn it off or fumbling to turn it on. Other features include a stereo/mono selector switch, adjustable ear bows so it's always a perfect fit, and intuitive operation with an ergonomic design.
